Instructors

Allyson Appen, Rokudan, is a sixth degree black belt with over 30 years training in Cuong Nhu. Complementing her Cuong Nhu expertise with six years of aikido and three years of judo, she is now concentrating on developing her skills in internal arts. Allyson stresses alignment and technique over strength, and believes in the power of a positive attitude — that and classes should be really fun. She served as president of the Cuong Nhu board of directors as well as for years as regional representative. Selected as "Martial Artist of the Year" in 2000 by the Pacific Association of Women Martial Artists (PAWMA), Allyson has also served on the PAWMA board of directors.

Amy Weiner, Yondan, is a fourth degree black belt in Cuong Nhu and received a 2nd degree black belt (Nidan) in Aikido from Kayla Feder Sensei (6th Dan) in 2007. She has been training in the martial arts for 26 years. She was president of the Pacific Association of Women Martial Artists (PAWMA) in 1987-89, and served on the board of directors for Cuong Nhu. Amy feels that her primary goal in training is reflected in the first of the Cuong Nhu code of ethics: Cuong Nhu students should strive to improve themselves and their abilities in the martial arts in order to serve the people.

Rosanne Boudreau is a black belt who started Cuong Nhu in 2002 as a way to physically challenge herself and get in shape. What she found was an interesting martial arts system, community and a great workout. She loves teaching, giving classes with technical content but also a good cardio workout. Come learn, have fun and sweat!

Tuyê't Tan Dojo

The Vietnamese translation for Tuyê't Tan is "snow melting". In an analogy described by one of our students, each snowflake is an individual, but after the snowflake falls, it unites with the other snowflakes to create a single vision (unity). In time, all the snow melts, transforming into a river of complete oneness to nurture the people. We feel that martial arts training helps to develop in each individual self-confidence, self-control, and a non-defeatist attitude. While providing a safe and supportive environment for men, women, and children, we strive for quality martial arts training, and give lots of individual attention to maximize the student's experience in our school.
